Articles: The Fruits Of My Labors |
Posted by

It's done. Finally, it's done.
After a year of late nights, stimulating conversations, interesting people and a lot of black clothing, I have finished my essay on Goth. Ignoring the fact that I have to immediately turn around and edit down several much shorter versions of it to submit for publication, I am posting it for all those who volunteered their thoughts and opinions to peruse.
As you read it, bear in mind that I never originally intended to put this on the Web. The writing is more appropriate to a print article, and hopefully will become one soon. Because I was taking a Web design class as I was writing this, I used it as a final project for the class. Soon I'll take it down, edit it some more, and rework it as a print piece.
For now, here's the link. Send me comments, if you have any. Let me know what you think.

Note: Everybody should read this, whether you're goth, not goth, or don't care. For everyone who's always asking what goth is or trying to explain it to other people, this is what you're looking for. Easily as educational as the Blood Dance Net stuff. -Devin- |

Good stuff, Maranda!!! I've been looking forward to this for a long time!
And look! I'm famous! My name's in print!
Wow. I am very impressed. Maranda gets official Goth status in my book, that's for sure!

The whole thing about holding onto the parts of humanity that society wants in a bag is what got to me. Especially when I translated it. In Devin-language that would translate to Goths are the Maintainers of the Shmeng. And here I am, maintaining a website by that name. Can't argue with the accuracy of that. Overall I'd say it kicked ass. The few things that I didn't agree with were well supported, and I can't even argue with them. Contrary to what Goth Test Snivellers think, matters of opinion ARE valid - as long as they are well thought out, and thought out by the person talking about them (not just repeating someone else's opinion - badly).
